Status

Last Updated - 11 May, 2023

• Todo's & Issues (sorted by priority) :
  • Support for PS3 Eye Camera.
  • Tracker lags when the camera is not hidden.
  • Camera from an external link.
  • Auto Update ( Hopefully ? ).
    • Notification added for now.

Usage

1. Visit the releases page and download the latest version on your platform. For Windows, a .msi installer will be provided, simply double-click on the installer and follow the installation steps. After Installing, you can simply run StableView from the start menu.

2. The application uses opentrack to send the tracking data to respective applications. Please install it from their Github repo.

   After installing OpenTrack, select Input as UDP over network so that OpenTrack can receive data from StableView and send it to the required application.

Features

• Uses your regular old webcam with AI for head tracking. Uses an extremely low CPU (<3%-60fps in Ryzen 5 3600H) and returns high performance.
• Works with opentrack to run on any modern simulator including Microsoft Flight Simulator, Digital Combat Simulator, Xplane & more.
• Easy to install :)

Shoutouts

• Thanks to the authors of the paper 3DDFA_V2 : Towards Fast, Accurate and Stable 3D Dense Face Alignment, without them, this application wouldn't have been possible, the majority of the model inference code is based on their work. Thanks, Jianzhu Guo, Xiangyu Zhu, Yang Yang, Fan Yang, Zhen Lei and Stan Z. Li.
• Sniffer for GUI inspirations, code structure, readme, etc.
• ChatGPT for assisting me to convert some of the Python code to Rust.
